Wowzer trousers that’s bad. There’s even an outlet just to the left, what’s that all about??

A stud finder works by sticking to the drywall screws just under the wall paint. A stud finder wouldn’t pick this up unless the hangers screws the drywall to that piece for no reason.
Going by the writing on the wall, it’s for a 3-way dimmer switch. It also is likely the picture was taken during its install and not from someone trying to find a stud

On top of everything else, the new outlet isn’t even close to even with the old one.
